The NFL season begins tonight. Do you follow football? If so, when did you start to follow the game?

Yes I do. I LOVE football, and in fall I kinda build my life around it. As for how long, never remember not being involved or watching. Watching my perennially hapless Bills blow it year after year. Four superbowls in a row! No one remembers that. They remember us losing 4 superbowls in a row. Norwood! (shakes fist in the air).

Don’t worry if you don’t get that reference, Bill Buckner does.

I have written a good bit about the NFL in these pages, rarely was it nice. I am conflicted. I LOVE pro football, but I HATE the NFL as an organization.

Why do NFL teams get the title of ‘world champions’ when no other nationality competes?

Why is the heavy lifter ‘mister universe’? those aliens have mad lifting skills, you speciest!

If Americans started calling soccer “football” like the rest of the world, what would be a good name to replace American football with?

In 10 words or less, explain American football to a foreigner.

That wasn’t a catch. Didn’t complete ‘further act of football’. *** was that ten? I am a musician, don’t come at me with math, bro.

You can remove one rule from the NFL. What is it and what does it do to the game?

Instead, I am adding a rule. I wrote about this years ago. If a QB can throw a ball up in the air, and catch SAME ball… and get in the endzone… that is worth 14 points. Think how much more entertaining ‘upside down’ games would be! Instead of tuning out a game where team is down by 30 points… you would be ALL the more needing to stay and watch… knowing they would execute that play. You are welcome, 4th quarter advertisers.
